Maybe I'll look into Heroic tomorrow, thanks for the info though, never used it before

Heroic is very straightforward, as long as what you want is access to your GoG, Epic, Amazon and Battle.Net libraries. Lutris is meant as a more general purpose launcher, so they're aiming at slightly different use cases that overlap.

Heroic won't solve your Lutris ISO problem, but if you want to play some non-Steam ways it works great, is easy to use and is very Steam-like.
